I would spend more time watching the water than changing baits with a short rotation through the best bank cover, any obvious weeds, and the deepest water I can reach because a few careful stops usually teach you more than a pile of random casts.

The fish list

The fish currently listed for Cedar Lake include Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Northern Pike, Pumpkinseed, and Yellow Perch; so I would pack with weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and weeds and easy cover for panfish, and see what actually shows up before changing directions.

What I would try before anything fancy

If this were my day on Cedar Lake, I would spend less time changing lures and more time noticing depth, cover, water color, and where bait is showing, then I would read the current Wisconsin DNR rules so nothing about the trip is based on an old limit.
